I am interested int hese events as I am intrigued by what they do as their culture during these events. For example, during Ramadan, i was shocked to find out that the Malays could only eat before dawn and after dusk.<br /><br />- I have shown respect for the customs and practices of others from different racial and religious background by being aware and not laughing or ridiculing at their culture or their physical appearances when they are around so as to prevent them from feeling embarrassed or enraged that they have been humiliated.<br /><br />Learn from it:<br /><br />- We need to be respectful in our interactions with others as this will only allow our bonds with others to grow instead of being destroyed due to an unthought act which offended or humiliated them, breaking our ties with them<br /><br />-It important to know the significance of religious and cultural practices of people from different racial background as this will allow us to understand why others perform certain cultures so that we are prepared and would not ridicule or humiliate them out of laughter.<br /><br />- I learnt that we must preserve these ties and order to do so, we must understand one another&#39;s culture and encourage one another to perform their own cultures not fearing of being embarrassed.<br /><br />Do it better:<br /><br />-I could probably visit mosques, temples, churches e.t.c to understand how their culture is.<br /><br />- We could organise games which consists of teams of equal number of each race/religion in it.<br /><br />- When encountering people of different races or religion, I will be polite and respectful towards their race/religion.Looi Chi Han (吕启涵)(17)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07641279238742163898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8175301609707663791.post-8125802797958248482013-07-15T13:49:17.447+08:002013-07-15T13:49:17.447+08:001.
